2022: ☢️ Chemical Symbol Si (+ Cool facts: Color, Uses and more...)

Every chemical element has its own symbol to represent them. But what is the Si element?

The answer is Silicon, whose symbol is Si, and there's a lot of cool facts about it that most people don't know. Let me walk you through...

Silicon Overview

Chemical Symbol

Si (Silicon)

Uses

Used in glass as silicon dioxide (SiO2). Silicon carbide (SiC) is one of the hardest substances known and used in polishing. Also the crystalline form is used in semiconductors.

State at 20 °C

Solid

Description

Amorphous form is brown power; crystalline form has gray metallic appearance. Seventh most abundant element in the universe. Second most plentiful element in the earths crust.

Name Origin

Latin: silex, silicus, (flint).

Sources

Makes up major portion of clay, granite, quartz (SiO2), and sand. Commercial production depends on a reaction between sand (SiO2) and carbon at a temperature of around 2200 °C.
